The sale brings the curtains down on Primrose’s stint as an asset owner in the UK following a prolific three years of solar development. The company had developed more than 250MW of solar in that time and CEO Giles Clark said he was pleased with its track record.

“The sale of these last assets to Equitix, one of the UK’s leading socially responsible investors, means they will remain in good hands continuing to contribute to the UK’s sustainable future for many years to come.

“This is a great note to end the year on, and while this deal marks the end of one phase for Primrose Solar we look forward to the new solar opportunities that 2017 and beyond will bring,” Clark added.
